This and That

I guess it has been a while since I logged into Blogger, I was a little shocked by all the changes but now that I have figured them out I thought I would stop on by and not just via my phones and the infamous iPhone dumps! Life has been pretty uneventful in these parts, we have just been soaking up some much needed sun and enjoying the wonderful weather that allows us afternoons and evenings of playing outside. This little guy is enjoying the outside even more now that he can WALK, which he has been doing for almost a month and I would say has close to perfected his new skill. Still can't believe he will be 15 months old this week! He has been in rare form the past few days though, I am blaming it on teeth coming in and hoping them come fast because I can't stand to see my happy natured little guy upset.

The big boy in the house hasn't been up to a whole lot, he is your typical three year old and is in the stage of exploring just how far he can push his mommy before she breaks. Lets just say the attitude has been in full swing lately and there has been a lot of time outs and the occasional spank to get him back in line. I am hoping this phase passes quickly. Last week wasn't great for him but I am hoping it has something to do with the eardrum of his that ruptured on Monday night! I had no clue he even had an infected ear I just thought he was complaining from hitting his ear at the park, lets just say no mom of the year here, I didn't even take him to the doctor until Wednesday after his ear started draining! Needless to say the kid is on the mend and is back to his normal hyper active self.
In baby news, BW3 (Baby Wood 3) is making his/her presence know. I am now 18 weeks and have been feeling little jabs that have turned into bigger kicks for the last 2 or so weeks now. Tomorrow we head to the doctor to get a sneak peak and make sure everything is growing on schedule, and no we are still not finding out if baby is boy or girl even though we could. If I had to guess BW3 is growing about like both the boys were at this point and I am not anticipating that BW3 will be a giant and I am not making any gender predictions either because well I just don't have a feeling one way or another and I am good with that. I was a wreck before the anatomy scan with both boys because I was so anxious and this go round I am at peace and not even worried, I just want to see a healthy baby growing away!
Not much else to report, just hoping that these ups and downs of this weather are about finished and Spring will be in full swing so we can continue to enjoy our afternoons outside, which are about to get longer thanks to day light savings time! My boys are thriving on outdoor play and so is this momma a little sunshine and warm weather is good for everyone and maybe attitudes will continue to improve the more playtime we have outside. I will say one thing a cold Monday was good for my house, since it got cleaned from top to bottom today and I even dusted!
Until next time, which I am hoping won't be to long, I hope everyone has a great week and happy Monday from our crazy house to yours!

The Good Stuff!

If you were to ask Coleman what the good stuff is, he would simply reply "my paci and bear"! That is all this kids needs to be super content and can be found with a paci in his mouth and his lovie bear's tag shoved up under said paci!

14 Months and 14 Weeks!

This little guy is already 14 months old, it is hard to believe! He is becoming such a big boy and is still the sweetest, most easy going child there is and that is a good thing because he also has some big news to share with you, can you tell how excited he is!
Coleman and Charlie, of course, are going to be a big brothers come August 5th or sooner, most likely sooner but this is my due date! Baby Wood #3 is on the way and today marks the start of the second trimester, we are thrilled to be growing our family and can't wait to find out if a little boy or girl will be joining our family! For those that may be wondering when that will be, well here's another shocker we are waiting until d-day to find out if we are growing our baseball team or if mommy will be getting a little mini me to take shopping!


So far things are looking great, the Ultrasound pictures was from a little after 9 weeks at my first appointment and we were able to hear the heartbeat via Doppler earlier this week, at my 13 week appointment. As far as differences in my pregnancy I really haven't noticed much but to be honest I really did forget what the first trimester was like with the boys.


As for Charlie he is super excited about having a new baby in the family and can't wait until Coleman gets to move into his room. He has been praying every night for a baby girl so we have been explaining to him that we don't get to pick, in theory he gets it but not always easy to explain to an almost 4 year old who knows what he wants! Stay tuned for many more updates, our lives are about to get real interesting!

What We've Been Up To!

Things have been pretty quiet around these parts, hence the lack of blogging since there is really not much for me to blog about. The boys are growing and are super active these days and are really starting to play with each other more and more. Charlie has been tested a great bit lately though, it seems that the idea of sharing is not his idea of fun. If Coleman has it he wants it regardless of if the toy is a baby toy or not, we have been working on this for a while and some days are better then other. Luckily Coleman is a great sharer and doesn't get upset when his brother steals his toys!
Coleman is all over the place these days but he is still not walking and is really showing no desire to. He can stand by him self and he can walk with a push toy all day long but as soon as I let go he falls to the ground and starts crawling. I am confident that if he puts his mind to it he can do it so I continue to work with him. Right now he has five and half teeth, which is so strange to me since he got his first four teeth before Charlie did but number five and six are taking way longer and are way more painful then I remember for Charlie. But hey every child is differentNow that Christmas Break is over we have finally gotten back into a routine and life is getting back to normal. Charlie is still loving school and I am pretty sure it is because he is one social little boy, he could care less about the learning though. I am hoping this will change in the next year and a half before he starts Big School! We have registered Charlie again for Soccer and he is pumped to bad it doesn't start for another month, I try not to talk about it to much because lets face it he still doesn't get the concept of time. So in a nutshell that is what we are up to right now, maybe in the future I will have some more exciting stuff to talk about!
